Make these exquisite little sweets a week or so ahead of time to allow the ingredients to marry and the bourbon to mellow. For a variation, try crushed chocolate graham crackers instead of vanilla wafers.

Ingredients

  • 1 (11-ounce) package vanilla wafers, crushed ( cups)
  • 1

Method

Process vanilla wafers in a large food processor until finely ground. Stir in pecans, powdered sugar, and cocoa powder. Pulse until well blended.

Transfer to a bowl. Add bourbon and honey, stirring until well blended.

Roll mixture into 1-inch balls with oiled or buttered hands; roll in powdered sugar or cocoa to coat. Store in an airtight container.
